Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

So, today we're going to talk about the amount of ketones in your body when you're fasting.

And if it's dangerous, if these ketone levels go to high, the problem is mainstream medicine

does not differentiate between something called nutritional ketosis, which is the healthy

version of ketosis, and something called diabetic ketopacetosis.

So, sometimes when you go to your doctor, if you mention you're on the ketogenic diet,

you might not get support.

I mean, even if you do a search on ketones on Google, you'll get all sorts of very unfavorable

things that will show up.

You'll get the connection between ketones and diabetic ketopacetosis being a complication

of diabetes that can lead to a coma or death.

And of course, you don't want to coma or death.

So, why would you want to do the ketogenic diet?

You also see things that we'll talk about ketones being in the urine can prompt you to

get a test before a medical emergency occurs.

That's pretty scary.

And then I saw this other interesting quote that talks about, you can get a urine ketone

test that can help you monitor if you're at risk for developing ketones.

So, obviously, they're not differentiating going into ketosis in a healthy way.

We're having diabetes type one and developing something called diabetic ketopacetosis because

you're not monitoring your insulin and you're allowing your blood sugars to go to high.
